I would like to replace the weather stripping on the rear door which is cracking and looks bad.
The vehicle is kept outside and the years of weathering is taking its toll on a few parts.
Ive combed through mbepc but cannot find the part to save my life.
Does anyone know where it might be in the parts catalog or its proper name or part number?

I think replacing it will be as simple as removing the panelling right over it (2 screws).

What about A 251 740 07 78

Item 300 in the diagram from mbepc

Thanks for the reply! Thats what thought too but upon closer inspection i realized that #300 is the weather stripping that goes around the door/trunk. Same as the ones that goes around the other 4 doors.

I looked through EPC and found item 300 but not the rubber seal on the d-pillar exterior. Strange.

Thanks for the help Chasis!
I called the dealer to help solve the mystery.

This is called a "Rear Pillar Trim" and the rubber gasket is indeed connected to the trim piece. Or at least its only sold with the trim.
This is a special order piece and its runs about $130-180 on the MB Catalog ($60-80 on Autohauz)

In the catalog its located 2011-2012 Mercedes-Benz R 350
